Project idea

A cultural center is centered on a historical location in Al-Hudaybiyyah, a district of Makkah Al- Mukarramah. In order to attract a significant number of domestic and international visitors, it aims to revive the region's heritage and Islamic beliefs. Inspired by the story of the Hudaibiyah Treaty when Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) camped outside Makkah and had talks with the Makkah emissaries, who denied his entry. After long and peaceful discussions, the parties resolved the matter through diplomacy and the Treaty of Hudaibiyah. As a result, the narrative made me realize that communication and language are two things that all people have in common and that they can use to fix any issue

History
In the Hudaybiyah region, a ten-year peace agreement was reached between Muslims and polytheists for them to enter Makkah peacefully and without fighting. As per the rumors Othman bin Affan was killed by Quraysh when he visited them for negotiations so Quraysh allow Muslims to enter Makkah or Umrah peacefully. So prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him) made a commitment titled Radwan companions to fight until the end.

Design Concept & Inspiration

- Communication

Language, which consists of words utilized in a structured and customary manner, is the primary means of human communication. Therefore, the roots of languages, such as Arabic, Aramaic, Syriac, and hieroglyphs to symbolize the capacity of individuals to communicate across races and linguistic barriers.
